Property Description
Welcome to 545 Colusa Avenue, a Mediterranean gem in the heart of Berkeley's coveted Thousand Oaks neighborhood.

Many modern updates are blended with classic charm in this home, which includes a bonus lower level space with its own separate entrance.

Across the street from the express commuter bus to The City and just blocks from Solano Avenue's vibrant shops and Colusa Circle's boutique farmers' market, this home combines serenity and convenience!
